Today in rock history... Motley Crue celebrates the 20th anniversary of the album "Dr. Feelgood", which got their careers running as one of the greatest rock icons. They plan to kick start the celebrations by playing the 1989 album in Crue Fest 2, but it's a good thing that the party doesn't start until July 19, because the band members claim they hadn't listened to most of the tracks in the album for a long time. "I'll probably listen to it on the way into rehearsals next month. We're going to brush off the cobwebs then," said Nikki Sixx in an interview with Rollingstone magazine. Here's a link to refresh your memory and listen to one of the greatest rock albums ever released:

Coldplay to be Sued by Multiple Artists

It's no joke that Coldplay's latest hit single, "Viva La Vida" stole elements of songs by two artists. Among the victims is Joe Satriani, which will most likely take legal action sooner. The other is Cat Stevens, who alleges that illegally stole some sound elements from his old track "Foreigner Suite"after noticing some striking similarities between the two. But that's the least of Yusuf Islam(Cat)'s problems right now. He already had to postpone a show in New York and schedule it a week late because of a "Work Permit" problem which has now been solved. For HUGE Cat Stevens fans out there like me, Stevens is scheduled to play a show in Los Angeles, CA next week and appear on "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" on May 13.
Do you think Coldplay Should be sued for incorporating elements of music which have already been recorded into a copyrighted song?
